I finished another dragon book recently. This one is pretty standard dragon rider fantasy fare, although the last 3 pages of the book really elevated it for me. I hope it's going where I think it is. I think I'll try the next, if for no other reason than I have nothing else lined up.

Comparing it to the last dragon rider series I've been reading, Songs of Chaos, Realm Breaker really nails the Protagonist Moment of Clarity where the other series falters. Holt is nothing compared to Skalda as far as main protagonists go... A comparison I realize now you'd only get if you're exactly me and have read both series. Hmm.

But once again, not enough dragons... They make it irritatingly ambiguous how intelligent the dragons not named Bale are, and any dragon without said name might as well not be a character. Very irritating, but also absolutely standard for dragon rider books. When will they get it?

I don't care for the book's Nordic theming. Ever since Skyrim it's become obnoxious. On the other hand, I think the magic system has potential. It feels a bit "secretly sci-fi", which piques my interest. Maybe I'm seeing things though. I'm probably seeing things.

I'm still searching for another book that's great rather than just good. But this one is good. As I said, the ending cinched it together perfectly, which fills me with hope for the next book, but we'll see if it can be better than "just good". I think the book was a bit short, but I'll pick up the next one. But for now, I continue to search for that one book that truly resonates with me.

I made me, but in Minecraft! Figura is really cool. I just wish it had the ability to resize my hitbox...

And yes, my belly DOES have jiggle physics,

Tell me your lore. Make it up if you would like!

I died a long time ago. But that's okay.

Liches like me can die all they want, and trust me, I take advantage of it. Just one of the perks of knowing a few good Soul dragons to help you out. Now, I'm a Blood dragon, myself, but how else do you think I look like a normal grey dragon? Gotta keep the meat on my bones fresh somehow, considering. Now, don't get me wrong, I don't hold a grudge against my fellow liches that are skeletons, or dolls, or whatever you put your soul in, but I like having organs I can knock around into kinda working once in a while. How could I ever give up a good fresh meal, for one! I'm not much of a cook, but I love sampling wherever I go.

Where do I go? Oh, you know. Everywhere I can get away with. I've been doing a spot of writing recently, and while pondering over tablets in a library is fine and all, I'd rather go out there and ask questions. So I do! Lucania is a wonderful place once you get to know it. From the sun-scorched peaks of Worldeye to the deep underground Olden ruins of Tel-Ka-Tha, there's something wonderful to see and hear. Love the place. It has a lot of dragons in it. I hope one day you can visit...

But hah, I digress. That enough lore for you? I have a lot of stories to tell, if you'd like to stay here a bit and listen. Although staying around me too long, well, you might find you have a dragon's Aspect yourself. Be careful now~
